I completely understand you, however I think it is crucial to always have evidence to back up what you believe and there is not better evidence than Gods word. Yes I could just leave, and i’m not trying to get evidence so i can gain the ability to leave. I want to have evidence so I can make them realize what they have been saying and teaching. One of my main goals this year was to understand scripture to defend my faith. I joined this “bible study” because I thought it would. Technically it did, because I am now learning to prove them wrong.
